WELCOME TO THE KITSAP COUNTY FOOD CHAIN!

Begun in 2010, the Kitsap Food Chain’s goal is to bring together farmers and food-related businesses, consumers, non-profits, and local government around the issue of building a sustainable local food system for Kitsap County. The organizers of the Food Chain project include Kitsap County staff and the Kitsap Food and Farm Policy Council, which is made up of citizens representing a broad spectrum of local food issues. Our goal for this website is to connect, educate, and energize! Look here for the upcoming events, news, information, and links to related organizations.

We currently have openings for new members on the Kitsap Food and Farm Policy Council.  Click here to find out more.
